Just looking round at K5's and notice that Mifsuds are offering a K5 kit (18-55 and 50-200) for £1099!

http://www.mifsuds.com/acatalog/Pentax_Digital_SLR.html

As you get £40 extra rebate for a K5 with a lens its actually cheaper than buying the body only and rebate!

Also assuming that the lens kit is worth £150, it gives a body price after rebate of £829 - very tempting...

That looks like a mistake to me, their body price is £1077 I cant see them offering two lenses for only £22 extra:

I still rather buy from SRS and get my no hassle two year warranty, I dont think Mifsuds are a Pentax Pro dealer.

Mifsuds are a Pro dealer according to the Pentax.UK website.

But it does sound like a mistake to me. Might be worth a try for someone - you could always sell the two lenses on if you don't want them.

I think I'm still going to buy from SRS, the K5 will be my third body from them, I'm hoping it'll be third time lucky and they'll forget to debit my card

I'll just jog your arm so you accidentally press order

Go On you know you want to. And you can sell those lenses on afterwards, making it a real bargain.

I can honestly vouch for Mifsuds, I've bought quite a lot of gear from them and routinely check their site for offers - to me they are the equal to SRS (and Park).

Enjoy your new camera (and new lens:wink

Thanks Peter.
I would have preferred to have used SRS but really the deal is too good to pass up (if it arrives). Have used Misfuds before and they were very good.

Must say thanks to Nick as well for the heads up
